DEATH TO THE DOGS.
checked CANNES .---Danger in the
Present Methods.

Present Methods.
The practice followed BY the police
force for several DAYS of shooting un>
checked dogs anywhere and everywhere,
has caused a great deal of feeling, and
many people have openly avowed that if
dogs belonging to them should meet the
fate of the other dogs, there would be
trouble. 1t is a question if the city has
right to destroy mans property IN the
manner spoken of. True, it is that all
city ordinances should be observed.
1t is not only an injustice TO the owner
of the dog to destroy it without affordiug
opportunity to redeem, but the proms-
| cuous public shooting is dangerous hab-
it. For instance, the tax on certain dog
may have been paid and the owner se>
cured check. and the dog may lose it or it
may be stolen, and if the dog happens to
be seen by a policemen or the dog catcher.
he is shot on the spot as has been the case
with Carse & Ohlweiler's little pet dog.
Alderman w. B. Fereuson's valued terrier
and others. the past week Yesterday
afternoon the dog catcher who is paid so
much for every unchecked dog he kills.
was caught in the act of running off a
valuable spaniel owned by Fay Harper,
and brought all the way from Kansas by
Mrs. Dusinberre. The dogs tax had
been paid, but he had lost his collar dur
ing the morning-it being afterward re
turned and the dog catcher lost no time
in running him In A few minutes late
and the dog would have been dead
Yesterday number of dogs wert
shot in the door yards of their own
ers aud in the presence of their own
ers. No one will doubt the danger of
such proceedings The glance of bul.
let might do fatal injury.
| Aside from the fact that the city has NJ
right to destroy property once taxed, 70
dog tax is called 'tcity tax" it woulC
seem that better way might b.
, adopted for compelling violstors of th'
law to obey. In the first place it wouI'
/ be emineDtly proper to tine the own
; er, but if the dog must suffer 70
, his masters negligence it would be
: very much better plan to impouud all un
checked dogs for certain number o
days before dispatching them in orde
that the owners might have every oppor
e tunity to redeem them.
